I promised the wife cinnamon rolls at some point. This is my first time making them. I fired the oven about 7:00 am with maple. Used a basic recipe and used bread flour instead of all purpose flour. The dough was perfect and rose very nicely. I pegged the thermometer, raked the coals out after a while and let the oven temp drop to 400::F. I was supposed to get two pans out of the recipe, but I don't think I rolled the dough out enough, so I stuffed them into one pan. I had to rise the dough a second time in the pan per the recipe.

You can see the downdraft in action. Flames go up in the dome and curl down the front and out the top of the door. It was a nice clean burn.

My wife the chief sugar glazing inspector approved. A good chunk went to the neighbors as a trade since we were out of powdered sugar. The smell was incredible when done. The rolls were airy and light, just a little flakey as I pulled them apart.
